Check engine warning lamp
E00502600093
This lamp is a part of an onboard diagnostic sys- tem which monitors the emissions, engine and automatic transmission control systems. If a problem is detected
in one of these systems,
this lamp illuminates. Although your vehicle will usually be drivable and not need towing, we recommend you to havethe system checked as soon as possible. This lamp will also illuminate for a few seconds when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON”position. If it does not go off after a few seconds, we recommend you to have the vehicle checked.
NOTE●
The engine electr
onic control module
accommodating the onboard diagnostic sys- tem has various fault data (especially about the exhaust emission) stored.This data will be erased
if a battery cable is
disconnected which will make a rapid diag- nosis difficult. Do not disconnect a batterycable when the check engine warning lamp is ON.
CAUTION
!●
Prolonged driving with this lamp on may cause further damage to the emis- sion control system.
It could also affect
fuel economy and drivability.
●
If the lamp does not illuminate when the ignition switch is turned to the“ON” position, we recommend you to have the system checked.
●
If the lamp illuminates while the engine is running, avoid driving at high speeds and we recommend you to have the system checked.Accelerator pedal and brake pedal response may be negatively influenced under these conditions.

inates when the
engine oil level is not low, have itinspected.
●
If you continue driving with low engine oil level or with this warning lamp illu-minated, engine seizure may occur.
